NOTD: China Glaze Tinsel Town

China Glaze Tinsel Town

Since it is now December, my lead up to Christmas has now begun, which means...a month of Christmas nail polish!!


China Glaze Tinsel Town

Today's nail polish is Tinsel Town, another polish from China Glaze's last year holiday collection. This is a stunning charcoal base with small and larger pieces of circular silver glitter. I'm not entirely sure what's very Christmas-sy about it, but I suppose it kind of looks like...snow? Icicles? Whatever, it's pretty enough that I don't really care.


In some lights, it's hard to see the dark base of this, but it is there. The silver takes over sometimes, sadly. But it's still gorgeous. 
Thankfully, this is not one of those super sheer glitters. This one only needed two coats to be completely opaque. The dark base really comes out in the second coat.


Unfortunately, this is a glitter, and like any glitter, this is a top coat eater. However, this is not the worst one I have ever encountered. I put on four layers of top coat, and it was pretty smooth. But- it was not very shiny and glossy, even with four layers.

Since this is from last year's collection, it is no longer available, but there are plenty of glitters in both the China Glaze and OPI holiday collections for this year!


Thanks for reading!!
